Ohh my lordy lord! All of you rabid Tribes players out there are probably having trouble reading due to the overwhelming excitement of having the possibility of being in the Tribes 2 beta test. Well, here's the skinny on how you too can be a part of this deal. There's some stuff you gotta do you know, to prove you are indeed worthy of such an honor. Jump through some hoops, eat some live bugs, bathe nude in a lake full of leeches... you know, the usual. Here's all of the hinkfo and URL so that you can once again whoop up on some fools.

The sign up period will last at least 10 days so that all of you can have the time to compose a thoughtful and winning piece as to why Sierra should pick you as a beta tester. There are only 1000 spots available, and while that may sound like a lot compared to other games, there's a lot of Tribes fans out there, especially considering the testers will be picked from all around the world. So just complete the entire beta application form and make sure you fill everything out correctly and especially the "Why should I be a beta tester" part.

Those of you that aren't the best Tribes players in the world that still want to participate shouldn't fear. Sierra is seeking out all kinds of Tribes players, from green little newbies to the ultra hardcore guys that can hit someone flying full speed with a disc launcher at 2000 feet. The other thing that you must have is a PII 300 or better to even run the game. Keep in mind that this is a testing process so you should be serious about finding bugs and reporting them to the development team.

Now for the video. What we have here is a little video taken from the Tribes 2 LAN party that Sierra recently held for the gaming press. Take a look at some of the industry's "finest" taking the game for a test drive.
